About the Poem

Love plays many factors in our life. Yet every time we take a chance something comes along and messes things up. We really don't focus on the sad side, or give recognition to our tears. Without them we would not be able to move forward, or love again.

Pain Of The Night

Watch as this tear falls into empty space
See it fall into life's nameless place
Can you see the sparkle as it catches the light
That sparkle once was happiness that is no longer in sight
As it falls watch it, its color has changed
From blue to bright red, it has a wide range

There it goes all alone, it continues to fall
With it, it takes the emotion, the emotion of all
Wait, can you hear it? A sob has broke free
Has shook the lungs cold, but yet it continues to be
Here it comes, a force has been built between the eye
A wall of shear water, it's now time to cry

A shudder, a scream, darkness envelops your soul
The darkness of the night has taken its toll

I like this poem. My boyfriends dad beats him and I have tried to help him. I've gotten him into shelters to stay away from his dad but his dad finds out where he is and makes him go home. I lay at night in my bed and I cry because of all the pain I have in my life. Thank you for showing this poem it is basically how I feel right now. Amber

Rachel
It really shows what happens when you have lost some you love. I think this poem reminds that we will never forget any pain of losing some one because at night when you can't sleep your mind wanders, and it will remember the pain of that time or event. the poem is great, though.
